In this part of Texas, our June through mid July is a lot like growing in the southeast with high humidity and hot temperatures. The Park's Whopper is one I've heard about for years and have wanted to grow. I am also leaning towards the Original Goliath over the other 3 Goliaths. I haven't grown many hybrids, but I will next year. Thank you.
